You need patience, but IE will learn eventually.

Right click on the IE Icon, not a short cut
Properties
Run maximized

Then every time it does not work, stretch to full size, click to make full size and when you do close go to file and exit. Do not use the right hand, upper, red X.

Never close a screen without doing this. Be careful when a new screen opens from clicking on a link, in a web site.

Will take time, do not get discourgaed, will work


Now get ready for many other suggestions, from others, which may or may not work, but I know mine will.

Easy way is to open, expand with the double box icon, hold the shift key down and close with the X box. Will open max after that every time.

After that it doesn't matter how you close them it will work.

None of them worked, so I downloaded a window maximizer program that does the job.....

Well that is strange as I have tried Richc46 and my way and both work fine.

Well, lets hope that is the only thing that doesn't work on your computer.

@Ilikefree. I think that your suggestion was excellent, rep for you. To be honest you taught me too.
